Cross into Canada at the Ambassador Bridge and go SSE on Huron Church
Rd. (Rte 3). Stay on Huron Church Rd, which will become Rte 7, several
miles ahead as Rte 3 bends left toward the W end of Rte 401. Follow
Rte 7 for a few miles until it ends at Howard Avenue (Rte 9), then
turn right (S) and go about 10 miles until Rte 9 ends. Turn right
(W) onto Rte 18, but go only a short distance to Malden Centre. Then
turn left (S at first, then SE) on Rte 50. The entrance to Holiday
Beach area is a mile or two ahead, on the right. At the admission
booth, they will give you a map with the route marked to the Hawk
Observation Tower (<1 mile ahead).

Note: if someone wants to go to Pelee on leaving Holiday Beach, it
is about an hour's drive. On emerging from the park at Holiday,
go back to Rte 18 in Malden Centre and take Rte 18 E through
Kingsville and on into Leamington. This road will change its
number to Rte 20 in Leamington; continue straight ahead for a
short distance and turn right at the sign indicating Point Pelee
NP, onto Rte 33. For further info, see the instructions to Pelee.
 
Note also: some prefer to take Rte 401 from just SE of Windsor
to the exit marked Leamington on Rte 401. This is slightly
longer in distance, but the faster speed on Rte 401 makes the
total time to Pelee about the same.
